They discuss how a single piece of equipment can develop strength, endurance, mental focus, and resilience all at once. Lorna shares how she discovered kettlebell sport, why the sport’s 10-minute endurance format is both physically and mentally demanding, and how technique—not just strength—is the key to long-term success. The conversation also highlights the meditative aspect of kettlebell training, the importance of problem-solving within movement, and why this sport can be practiced across the lifespan—from young athletes to competitors in their 70s and beyond. Whether you're curious about kettlebells or looking for a highly efficient way to train your entire body, this episode offers insight into a discipline that blends strength, strategy, and mindset.Highlights / Topics Covered:What kettlebell sport actually is and how competitions workWhy technique and efficiency matter more than brute strengthThe mental side of endurance lifting and managing discomfortHow kettlebell training supports strength, cardiovascular fitness, and longevityWhy athletes from age 9 to 76+ can compete in the sport | 27m 46s | ||||||

They unpack the logistics (mandatory gear, daily calorie targets, pack weight) and Mikki’s key lesson from her last stage race: big “rest-day” meals can backfire; liquid glucose can save the next day’s gut. The chat pivots to GLP-1 meds: what they actually do (slower gastric emptying, steadier glucose, reduced appetite), why weekly dosing matters, and why “GLP-1 diets” are just marketing cosplay. Expect practical takeaways, myth-busting, and a reminder that progress—whether 20 hours in sand or 100 kettlebell snatches—is a long game powered by consistent action.Multi-stage ultra prep: food, weight limits, camp logisticsRest-day fuelling mistake → runner’s gut; liquid calories strategyGLP-1 mechanisms (gut/brain), weekly dosing, realistic effectsDebunking “boost your GLP-1 naturally” claimsMindset: action reduces anxiety; play the long game | 22m 25s | ||||||

Mikki and Jess unpack the “order of operations” for better nights—dim, warm-toned lighting below eye line, parking the phone 45 minutes before bed, and building a repeatable wind-down ritual. They compare magnesium forms (why glycinate usually wins for sleep, and why oxide/hydroxide are more for “movement” than melatonin vibes), and touch on NSDR, smart napping (20–60 minutes, not after 4 p.m.), and how daytime choices—omega-3s, vitamin D, creatine, simple routines—prime the system for deeper recovery. Practical, calm, evidence-aware guidance you can put to work tonight, whether you’re tapering for an ultra or just trying to show up better tomorrow. HighlightsYou can’t supplement your way out of poor sleep habits—routines rule.Set the light environment: warm, low lamps; increase screen distance at night.Magnesium 101: glycinate for sleep; avoid oxide/hydroxide for absorption.NSDR and short, earlier naps to top up recovery.Daytime habits support night-time sleep. | 23m 20s | ||||||

In this candid chat, we unpack the claims behind Dr Mindy Pelz’s Fast Like a Girl, especially the cycle-timed fasting protocols that sound sciencey yet lack solid evidence. We break down what autophagy actually is (think Pac-Man meets kitchen demo), why extended fasts can risk muscle loss, and how exercise and smart nutrition can mimic many “fasting benefits” without the stress. You’ll hear why complexity often masquerades as credibility, how to spot marketing overreach, and what consistently works for women in the real world: protein, strength training, and routines you can actually keep.HighlightsAutophagy explained simply—and why it’s a dimmer, not an on/off switchThe problem with cycle-based fasting protocols and missing evidenceMuscle matters: risks of extended fasts vs benefits of eating and trainingExercise and diet strategies that mimic fasting’s touted effectsCutting through marketing: choosing consistency over complexity | 21m 57s | ||||||

Mikki shares her recent hamstring tear and the mental battle of cutting a long run short just weeks before race day. From dry needling and physiotherapy to the surprisingly simple collagen and vitamin C protocol, they break down how athletes can use nutrition to accelerate healing in tendons and ligaments. The conversation also dives into timing, dosing, and why exercise is essential to “traffic” nutrients where they’re needed most. If you’ve ever been sidelined by injury, this episode gives both practical tips and reassurance that progress isn’t lost.Highlights:Mikki’s honest account of managing a hamstring injury during ultra trainingThe role of dry needling, physio, and structured rehab in recoveryCollagen + vitamin C: the Keith Barr-inspired protocol explainedWhy timing supplementation around exercise is critical for healingHow to keep perspective when injuries disrupt training | 17m 59s | ||||||

In this chat, we zoom out from the noise—hello, social media overwhelm—and come back to basics that actually work. We unpack why a full plate can still equal a calorie deficit, how prioritising lean protein and veg reduces decision fatigue, and why “eat more” can coexist with fat loss. Mikki explains protein-sparing days (used 1–3× weekly) with real-world food examples, plus the mindset shift from all-or-nothing to flexible structure: follow the plan most of the time, make room for life (yes, the peanut butter cup), and keep stacking small wins. You’ll leave with practical meal cues, shopping ideas, and a calmer way to stay on track when life gets busy.Episode HighlightsHow to eat more food volume while staying in a calorie deficitProtein-sparing days: what they are, when to use them, and foods to buyPlan vs freestyle: reducing decision fatigue and overthinkingMindset shifts—abundance over restriction; progress over perfectionCutting info overload (less scrolling, more basics) to stay consistent | 24m 15s | ||||||

From the funny story of Mikki’s “stress ball” microphone to practical advice on managing second winds and evening routines, the conversation balances science with real-life struggles of busy parents and professionals. They explore why naps count, how light and temperature influence sleep quality, and when supplements like magnesium can be helpful. Most importantly, they highlight how small, consistent changes—like adjusting bedtime by 15 minutes or creating calming rituals—can significantly improve sleep, brain health, and energy. This chat is equal parts practical, relatable, and laugh-inducing—perfect for anyone who knows they should sleep more but struggles to switch off.Highlights:Why cortisol and melatonin act in opposition and how that affects sleepPractical strategies to avoid the dreaded “second wind” at nightDo naps really help?

They explore how simple foods like potatoes and rice can actually support health and satiety, especially when prepared in ways that boost resistant starch.

Jess tells the story of a surprising and heartfelt encounter at Lululemon that became a lasting memory for her and her kids, while Mikki shares her take on everyday opportunities to connect. Together, they explore why intentional engagement—like buying a coffee for the next person in line—can shift our mindset, lift our energy, and even create ripple effects for those around us.

The real focus, though, is on a concept many overlook: energy flux.

From the myth of detox cleanses to the realities of post-weight-loss body image, the duo unpack why the aesthetic "end goal" often doesn't deliver the satisfaction people expect—and how true transformation lies in daily practices, mindset shifts, and self-compassion.
